The International American School is committed to creating and sustaining a diverse, and compassionate community grounded in a culture of integrity. We define diversity as the range of identities people hold. This includes (but is not limited to) racial; socio-economic; ethnic or heritage; language; national origin; physical, cognitive, and emotional ability; age; gender expressions and identity; sexual identity; and religion.

Even though our educational system is academically rigorous and demands high performance, it rewards effort and reflects our unique and diverse society. We are an international school, with over twenty different nationalities represented. A culturally diverse school helps students develop their critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Encountering new and different ideas and perspectives makes students evaluate their viewpoints.
